This is seriously creepy.<\/p>\n

Over a million doses of polio vaccine have been shipped to Israel in preparation for a mass vaccination campaign in Gaza. The vaccines are an emergency response to the first confirmed case of polio reported in Gaza last month. According to an article in the New York Times<\/em>:<\/p>\n

UNICEF, the U.N. children\u2019s fund, said it was delivering the vaccines in cooperation with the World Health Organization<\/strong>\u2026 UNRWA; and other groups. UNRWA officials said they hoped to deliver the first vaccines to Gazan children starting on Saturday\u2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Gaza Health Ministry confirmed that the vaccines had reached Gaza and that preparations to begin the campaign to inoculate children under 10 were underway<\/strong>\u2026. the U.N. said on Monday that its already hamstrung humanitarian operations had been brought to a temporary halt after the Israeli military ordered the evacuation of Deir al-Balah, where the agency has its central operations.<\/p>\n

But a senior U.N. official\u2026 said\u2026 that there was no change to plans to begin polio vaccinations<\/strong>, despite the fact that the temporary pause in the U.N.\u2019s humanitarian mission. Polio Vaccines Arrive in Gaza, but Distributing Them Is the Next Challenge<\/a>, New York Times<\/em><\/p>\n

So, the UN is unable to distribute humanitarian aid to the Palestinians, but they are charging ahead with a mass vaccination campaign?<\/p>\n

Doesn\u2019t that sound a bit strange? Keep in mind, the Israelis have been preventing food, water and medicine from entering Gaza for months which has led to mass starvation and a sharp uptick in preventable diseases. But now we are expected to believe that they care about the physical well-being of the people they have been bombing to smithereens for the last 10 months?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not buying it. Here\u2019s more from the Times<\/em>:<\/p>\n

Speaking from Zawaida, in central Gaza, Mr. Rose, of UNRWA, said that more than 3,000 people would be involved in the vaccination campaign, about a third of them from UNRWA. Mobile health teams would help deliver the vaccines to shelters, clinics and schools, but he said a humanitarian pause was needed for parents and children to safely meet aid workers at those sites.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aid workers \u201cwill do our absolute utmost to deliver the campaign because, without it, we know that the conditions will just be worse someday,\u201d Mr. Rose said. \u201cIt is not guaranteed that it will be a success.\u201d<\/p>\n

For children who contract polio, he added, the prospects of receiving proper treatment remain \u201cincredibly bad\u201d while many of Gaza\u2019s hospitals and health clinics are closed or only partly functioning as a result of the conflict. New York Times<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
